Determine the collision time and angle for two projectiles. A bird of mass m, flies horizontally with velocity Vo in the x-direction. A hunter spies the bird when it is a distance (xo,h) away from him. The hunter's gun fires a bullet of mass m2 that leaves the barrel of the gun at velocity Vh, as shown in the figure. Xo Part A Assuming that the bullet is fired such that it hits the bird, how long does it take the bullet to reach the bird? x_0/(V_b cos 0 ) x_0/(V_b cos 0 - V_0) V_0/(V_b cos 0 ) x_0/V_0 Submit My Answers Give Up Part B What is the largest possible value e, such that the bullet will bird? 0 > arccos(Vo/V) 0 < arccos(Vo/V) 0 > arctan(Vo/V6) 0 < arcsin(Vo/Vi) Submit My Answers Give Up O O
